I put one on layaway today and googled it when I got home...how bad is this lead fouling issue?

I'll be shooting Blazers, federal bulk/automatch, CCI mini mags, t bolts and 333's through it and don't want to have to constantly scrub the bore. If this is a huge problem maybe I'll get the m&p22c instead

I bought one about 2 months ago.  Have anput 2k through it and love it except when i try and disassemble it.  Mine seems to have maintained accuracy so i havent scrubbed the bore yet.

Which one did you get?



Just a small percentage are affected and it is only certain models.

There is a reason Ruger started putting holes in the barrel shrouds on the cobalt and the blue.

I've got this one and put a bunch of rounds through it! All good so far!

 



If you get one remove the mag safety and stick in a Volquartsen sear. Cheap but big  improvement

I have the cobalt and have zero issues.  I have only heard about it in the model you ordered, but never from anyone I know who actually owns one.

Well crap...

Wonder if I should swap it for the m&p22c instead...

Just get a cobalt or a blue one. They are great when they work.

I'm going to go ahead and switch it out for the m&p22c.

It will be a better trainer for the wife anyways.

edit:: Got the m&p22 c. Hopefully I can get off work at some point to shoot it

I looked at a 22/45 Lite yesterday. I may need to reconsider too.

I ran a couple hundred rounds through my m&p22c and it ran like a top. Ran some T-bolts, federal bulk, fed automatch, and mini mags through it. Only issue I had was a automatch that must not have had any powder in it, luckily the bullet did make it out of the barrel. I do like how the 22/45 lite feels but the m&p does mimic my other pistols MUCH more closely.

Fabulous.  I just bought one of these last weekend to go with a warlock I have pending.  Never knew there were problems with this model.
